California is Committed to Helping

our Immigrant Communities 


California is an incredibly diverse state, and our diversity only makes us stronger and more resilient. To help support the state's diverse population  -- including undocumented Californians -- the State of California released a new COVID-19 Guide for Immigrant Californians to help this vulnerable population stay safe, healthy and informed. 

The guide includes:
  • Stay-at-home order considerations
  • Ways to protect yourself and others 
  • Immigration help
  • Public charge information for accessing public benefits
  • Testing and treatment
  • Information on jobs, wages, and benefits 
  • Small business support
  • Housing 
  • Food and bills 
  • Community safety
  • Protection against scams and bad information

In addition to the guide, Governor Gavin Newsom  introduced several initiatives last week to alleviate the negative financial impacts of COVID-19. 

Among the initiatives introduced is a new $75 million Disaster Relief Assistance project to provide one-time assistance for undocumented Californians impacted by COVID-19. In addition, Governor Newsom announced that a group of the state's philanthropic partners have come together to commit an additional $50 million to support undocumented Californians.

Additionally, those who are uninsured, regardless of income or immigration status, can be covered for COVID-19 testing and treatment services for FREE through Medi-Cal. Click  here for more information.
